auditions A Dolls House Pt 2 at Nutley Little theatre

Nutley Little Theatre announces auditions for A DOLL’S HOUSE PART 2, written by

Lucas Hnath and directed by Wanda Maragni.

About the show:

Fifteen years after Nora Helmer slammed the door on her stifling domestic life, she is

knocking at that same door, having returned with an urgent request for her former

husband. Before Nora can get what she needs, she must reckon with the people she

left, all of whom have some choice words for the former Mrs. Helmer. Lucas Hnath’s

funny, probing and bold new play is at once a continuation of Ibsen’s complex

exploration of traditional gender roles while also creating a sharp contemporary take on

the struggles inherent in all human relationships.

Character Breakdown:

Nora Helmer – late 40’s-early 50’s; a successful, feminist writer who returns 15 years

after leaving her family. She is a strong, independent woman who returns to try to

salvage her new life.

Torvald Helmer – 50’s; a banker and Nora’s husband who had to raise their 3 children

after Nora left. He has very traditional views and has struggled to adapt to life alone.

Anne Marie – 60-70; the Helmer’s housekeeper/nanny who stayed to help raise the

children. She is practical, may be stern and resents Nora for leaving. She had also been

Nora’s nanny.

Emmy – late teen’s to early 20’s; Torvald and Nora’s daughter. Raised by Anne Marie

after her mother’s departure, she is a self-assured young woman who we find to be a lot

like her mother.
